The lake

Is it photography, is it something else?  The starting point is photographic, its execution is typical of a pictorialist photography: the application of vignetting, the reference to the vocabulary of pinhole photography, the use of a reduced chromatic scale. But the digital interventions, the wooden base, the coloristic intervention through the choice and use of waxes and resins, the structuring of the surfaces with red-hot irons lose the indexical value characteristic of photography and open up to something else. We are on the fine line between index and icon. The use of wood, of image transfer, of waxes and resins, in truth, takes us into the terrain of mixed media.
